MaxTul is always gonna be the winner for me, the rest I think are mid to good. This list is missing many better kisses, but specifically DaouOffroad's kisses in Love in Translation and OabPon's kiss (especially their first kiss) in Long Beans.
but surprised to me that when i travelled to tianjin, i saw a lot of gay couples holding hands openly
Yes, your comment never mentioned there being no gay people in China, I was responding to Smart Mouth who said they were surprised to see openly gay couples.
A lot of people have several wrong ideas about China, regarding its government and people. The Chinese government is hell bent on limiting what they consider to be 'Western influence', but only the Western influence they don't approve of, but many people living in China, young and old, see through it. They can only do the best they can to live with it, and not just LGBTQ+ people, but other minorities as well. Like most countries, there are people stuck within it hoping for change one day.
LOL the t̶h̶r̶e̶e̶ four little pigs are absolute idiots. So are the Four Horsemen and all their minions. Absolutely no one knows what they're doing and I'm here for it 😂 The whole heist was hilarious, Rose's reaction to Jack, heh, she took it like a pro, kudos to her. And while the 'getting together' wasn't aggressive or heated, it was still good. Fun episode.

Being gay is not illegal in China, they just don't have equal rights in certain things, and LGBTQ+ related content is not allowed in Chinese media. They also have gay people in media, but when appearing in the media, they have to tone it down as much as possible and not focus on it at all. They even made a rule against heavy makeup on male celebs a few years ago because Chinese male celebs were looking 'too pretty/beautiful/feminine' in ads and shows and photos.
The Chinese government does this because they wants to preserve the 'Traditional Family' idea at all costs and for as long as possible, that's their bs no-homo reasoning, even though each year, more and more Chinese people don't view the trad family unit as the only option they have. Don't judge the nation by their government.
Ngl, I had lost interest a bit after ep6, it was kinda boring, but ep7 brought the game back nicely. The actor of Ryoma is really a gem, a born to play live-action-anime character actor, that selfie scene was fucking hilarious and so well done 😂
Considering the content of eps 3 and 4, if they re-air without cuts today and tomorrow, it'll for sure be smooth sailing without censorship, just as the first 4 eps were.
Watched it. Worth a one time watch simply because the series was so great, but over all it lacked the magic of the series. Could honestly have done without it.
